World Trade Center/Brokeback Movie Trivia



Interesting casting choice. The actor, Peter McRobbie, who plays the dad of Maggie Gyllenhaal in World Trade Center is the same actor who plays the dad of Jake Gyllenhaal in Brokeback Mountain. Is this an inside joke on the part of Oliver Stone. I found it distracting but amusing.

And while we're on the subject of Brokeback Mountain. Below is a pic of the two guys, I believe, killed Jack Twist, (Jake Gyllenhaal).



These guys are in one frame of the trailer but they didn't make the final cut of the movie. Notice the guy holding the tire iron. In the original trailer they cut to these guys as Ennis discusses his fears about getting killed. They are obviously mechanics, so did Jacks car break down and then they killed him when he asked for help?

And while we're on the subject of the trailer here are two more shots taken from the trailer that are not in the final cut: Jack and Ennis driving in the truck together. Where are they going?
